Hello
   I have LTSP server installed, clients now boot with diskietts and all
works great. Two days ago i wanted to test booting from my intel PRO/100+
NIC and i'm confused becouse i can't get it work.
My OS is RedHat 9.0, ltsp_kernel-3.0.11(dhcpd --version is
isc-dhcpd-V3.0.1rc12) with PXE and Etherboot support. My dhcpd.conf is
    host ws001 {
        hardware ethernet     00:90:27:xx:xx:xx;
        fixed-address         10.0.3.59;
        filename              "/lts/2.4.22-ltsp-1/pxelinux.0";
     }
When i start workstation with Intel LANDesk Service Agent i see
DHCP MAC ADDR: 00:90:27:xx:xx:xx
PXE-EA1: No PXE server found, using standard boot file.
IP ADDR: 10.0.3.59
TFTP..............
PXE-E32: TFTP open timeout
PXE-E32: TFTP open timeout
PXE-M0F: Exiting LANDesk Service Agent

in /var/log/messages is

Nov  4 14:51:53 altair2 dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 00:90:27:xx:xx:xx via eth0
Nov  4 14:51:53 altair2 dhcpd: DHCPOFFER on 10.0.3.59 to 00:90:27:xx:xx:xx
via eth0
Nov  4 14:51:53 altair2 dhcpd: DHCPREQUEST for 10.0.3.59 (10.0.3.158) from
00:90:27:xx:xx:xx via eth0
Nov  4 14:51:53 altair2 dhcpd: DHCPACK on 10.0.3.59 to 00:90:27:xx:xx:xx via
eth0

When i've tried
if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 9) = "PXEClient" {
          filename "/eepro100.lzpxe";
      } else if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 9) =
"Etherboot" {
          filename "/lts/vmlinuz-test.nbi";
          option vendor-encapsulated-options
3c:09:45:74:68:65:72:62:6f:6f:74:ff;
      }
from pxe.howto but it wan't work too.
So i wonder how can i make it work. Booting from FDD is ok but i would like
some ws to boot from NIC.
I thing i miss something but i don't know where. I working with LTSP from 3
months and i thought that NIC booting wan't be hard to do :).

My organization want to buy EPROM programmer and make other workstations
with other NIC to boot from them but i must make it work. Mayby this Intel
is wrong or I need a BIOS update or ....
I don't now what to do
Please help
Best regards
Grzesiek
